Best Steelers Linebackers

The best linebacker in Steelers history is Jack Lambert (1970s), rated 95 out of 100 — just ahead of T.J. Watt and Jack Ham. Below, all 12 ranked, spanning 1970s–2020s.

These are all-era rankings with no cutoff year: a Steelers linebacker from the 1970s is rated on the same scale as one playing today, which is why this list looks different from rankings that only go back to the modern era. The ratings are the same ones that power 17-0, the free game where you draft a roster of all-time greats and sim whether it goes a perfect 17-0 season.
